Flag Football








Joshua started flag football a few weeks ago. I've been a little nervous starting a new sport, but he is learning quick and he LOVES it. Today he scored 4 points (two (2) extra point attempts) and had several pulls (where they pull the flags off the opponents). I was so proud to see him. Each week they also work on a personality trait. The person who demonstrates that the best earns a medal. First week was sportsmanship and I can't remember what last week was, but this week it was courtesy. Joshua won the medal for showing courtesy the best. He was helping people by picking up their flags and handing it to them, picking up the ball for the ref, congratulationing the other team when they scored. He has wanted that medal for the past two weeks, so he really worked hard and did great. We are also 2-0 so far!! Go Jets!! Needless to say, I am feeling very proud this Mother's day.....not only for the success of Joshua, but for all my kids.

I was very proud of him as well. He's worked so hard and it was so neat to see him play with such passion. He was so proud when he got that medal.
